LONDON, UK – Tottenham Hotspur have initiated formal club-to-club negotiations with Manchester City for the transfer of highly-rated winger Savinho.
The move comes as Spurs boss Thomas Frank has reportedly identified the 21-year-old as an “ideal player” for his system.
Negotiations between the two clubs are now ongoing, with a potential deal hinging on an agreement over the transfer fee.
Savinho, who had a breakout season on loan at Girona last year, is understood to be open to the move to North London if the clubs can reach a final agreement.
The Brazilian’s impressive performances in La Liga have made him a sought-after talent, and while Manchester City had him as part of their long-term plans, a lucrative offer from Tottenham could tempt them to sell.
The pursuit of Savinho signals Spurs’ intent to add pace and creativity to their attack for the upcoming season.
The potential transfer fee is expected to be substantial, reflecting Savinho’s age and high ceiling. For Tottenham, this would represent a significant investment in a player who fits the profile of their new managerial philosophy.
For Manchester City, a sale would provide a healthy profit on a player who has yet to make a senior appearance for the club, showcasing the effectiveness of their loan system and a shrewd business model even when selling to a Premier League rival.
